USC Trojans are rebuilding for basketball season amid injury hurdles, hoping a healthier roster this year can fix last year’s NCAA Tournament miss. With only nine players currently in live drills, key returnees like Rodney Rice—expected back by August 25th after a shoulder injury—and Aaron Hunkin-Claytor are crucial to their turnaround. Rice, who averaged 20+ points and 6 assists in limited play last season, is set to form a dynamic backcourt with Alijah Arenas, who returned from the NBA draft. Meanwhile, Eric Reibe and KJ Lewis remain sidelined, with Lewis likely returning in late September. Despite the setbacks, Musselman’s strong transfer class—ranked third in the Big Ten—has fans optimistic about a deep tournament run and Big Ten title contention.
